2015 Spring Fashion Week Trends

Statement lips, bold and not so bold eyeliner, pops of colour, smokey eyes (a smokey eye will never go out of style) and even the bare minimum is what took over this years runways for Spring's 2015 Fashion Week!


 

There wasn't a definite trend with eyeliner as it went from none - simple - dramatic, from pictures it looked as if almost every designer had their own idea of what should be done with the eyeliner, the colour trend popped out in a lot of different shows.

Bold Lips

I'm not sure if I've made it clear on this blog but I am a lipstick slave, I will rarely leave the house to go do something without something on my lips, I own a ridiculous amount probably more than I will ever use but hey, you can never have enough different lip colours right? So I absolutely LOVED seeing the bright and bold or the dramatic and dark lips.

(Missoni)


(Dolce & Gabanna - Kendall Jenner, one of my style icons, I adore her)

COLOR POP

I loved seeing the different ways colour was being used on the eyes, the creativity behind these shows and the make up artists is truly amazing and I only dream to get a glimpse one day. There was a lot of blue used I noticed while looking through photos and purples, I am not a fan of purple because I have yet to master the look it not looking bruised...

(Max Mara)


ALMOST NAKED

The au naturel look, bare minimum. I think this will always be a trend during spring and summer just as the smokey eye will always be a trend.



(Tory Burch)

My favourite was definitely the pops of colour, it gave me a lot of inspiration. Let me know which one you guys love in the comments!

L'Oreal Color Riche

Hello all! I'd love to start this post by saying it's a beautiful day but unfortunately that's not the case. It's quite snowy and cold in Calgary at the moment. A month ago or so I invested in a L'Oreal Color Riche Lipstick in Color 417 - Peach Fuzz.
Sorry for the not so great quality, I just thought of this post and quickly snapped these with my phone.
 



 
When swatched on the hand, it looked fantastic. Very shimmery and quite a bit of color to it, however this was not the case when applied to the lips which left me disappointed. Its staying power was another disappointment, stayed maybe at max an hour and turned cakey after only a few minutes. The only thing I really enjoyed about this lipstick was the packaging, I love the gold and how it makes it look less like a cheap lipstick but overall I don't think I'd purchase another one. Has anyone else tried the Color Riche Lipsticks?
